Nagios Support Forum

I got one of our internal developers to write this script for Nagios to check Windows MPIO multipathing. I can run the powershell okay directly on Windows and it returns the paths and their status. The developer was trying to replicate a similar script that was written in Ruby. However when I run it via Nagios it returns the following message

[root@cr-netmon libexec]# ./check_nrpe -2 -H 172.17.32.52 -p 15556 -c check_multipath
UNKNOWN: Return buffer to small to handle this command.
[root@cr-netmon libexec]#

I am running with 0.3.9.328 of the NSClient++ - yes I know it is older.

Any assistance appreciated.

Hi JDK,

It looks like you are hitting the bug below. Can try testing this out on an updated system.

UNKNOWN: Return buffer to small to handle this command.

Alrentatvely you could install NCPA in this system. This is our agent and we can provide better support on it.
